Is there a way to calculate the first and last day of the current month?
Thanks,
Yes. PHP has functions for this. Look them up.
i'll even give you a link to the site
www.php.net
I think I will do just that.
ok then, good idea...
This seems to work and illustrates the use of the appropriate functions....
function getDaysInMonth($thisYear,$thisMonth) { $date=getdate(mktime(0,0,0,$thisMonth+1,0,$thisYear)); return $date["mday"]+1; }

Nonononono! Don't do their work for them or that's all you'll end up doing! getdate()? Eeewww....
Well I thank you for your efforts stevebuk.. I am researching the "Correct" function to use..
And while I dont expect someone to "Do my work for them" as if We were pets or something.. A general point to the correct function isnt too much to ask.
Instead of downing everyone who is trying to learn!
I think people are happy to help, however it is useful to at least try to find the answer on your own first... a search for 'calendar' on PHP's site would have gotten you a solution. 🙂
Personally, I would use the Calendar functions....

Thank you for pointing me in the direction.. I was scouring for it..
